Leeds College of Music 2015 - Have you received an offer?

Hey :-)

I'm Jemma and I graduated from LCoM in July 2014. I just wondered if anyone has received an offer from LCoM yet?!

If so, what course are you going to study?

I remember what it was like when I was having to choose a uni and I had SO many questions! If you have any questions about courses or LCoM life in general, then feel free to ask! I'd love to help :-)

Hi Jenna, thanks very much for getting back to me, and thanks a lot to the person you asked! Also, I don't suppose you know when any freshers group for 2015/16 is going up on Facebook or the like?

Got a firm offer confirmed for popular music! Excited/nervous/everything else you could be feeling!

I have a conditional offer for a degree in classical performance with scholarship.

Hi Ingrid!

Yes I did. The rooms are great, really spacious with lots of storage and every room has an ensuite. Some rooms are bigger than others but they vary :-)

I've just spoken to Rachael who I believe emailed you yesterday? She's said that if you come on the 19th, she's sorting out a room for you to have a look at!

Hi! So I auditioned for Leeds on the 16th of February. I guess it went alright! I did get mixed feelings about the College, and really really good vibes from the city, which is important as I'm wanting to be do music professionally, and where's better than Leeds for gigging other than London, really? (I got an offer from Hull, a city I don't think much to at all but the Uni's good!)

This was over three months ago. I've been completely on the edge of my seat, restless nights worrying about this. About two months in I got a letter from them apologising, saying they still had more people to audition and my response would be Monday, April 27th. Heard nothing, rang on the Tuesday, the woman sounded really busy and apologised and said she'd get on it. Still heard nothing. Tried again on the Friday, same thing. Tried yesterday, she said the exact same thing, that she'd have to "chase it up with Danny".

Today, 8:17pm I got an email from UCAS. Something updated on Track, went to check, and got the shock of my life!

"Your outstanding decisions have been made unsuccessful due to no reply being received from the universities by the deadline they were given."

Wait what? I stared at it blankly for about twenty minutes. Well this is unexpected... I thought the deadline was late June/Early July. Do I definitely not have a place? Is it even worth ringing them in the morning about it? I'm completely in shock. What do I do now? Aaargh!

Hey!

Congrats on the scholarship!

If you have any questions about anything to do with LCoM, just give me a shout!

I was wondering what you have to study during the first year overall? In particular, is there a reading list for first year? I know that they will probably give us this information in Freshers week but I'd really like to get a head start on the work over the summer, if you have any information on that it would be much appreciated.
